Icicles against sky

OK, points if you get the reference in my post title. Otherwise, I don't have too much to say, other than that I like the way the angles in this photo play against each other.

This was taken during this January's ice storm. It was fun. We were housebound for days. Maybe we didn't need to be, but we were too chicken to even try to drive. In Austin, even rain can throw people for a loop.

When we ran out of regular food, we had to improvise, and after searching our pantry, came up with a damn fine Mexican lasagna, the recipe for which I will post later at my food blog, Miss Menu. Makes me kind of wish for more snow days in life.
